Although million of book are issued annually to tha public from free llbrarlea, no effort haa been made heretofore to furnish book which blind people could read. It la true, -that a library for the blind has been til LlsleACS for Bome time at Stepney, but . it was altogether Inadequate to aupply the de mand for auch books. . The small library proved a great aucceaa and municipalities In all parts of the country decided to es tablish similar branches. The next dlffl culty' was, however, to obtain a suffi cient number of books, it Is tha object of the promoter of the present move ment not only to extend the system of branch libraries for blind people; but to have books, either In the dot system, or In ordinary raised letters, printed .to supply these " branch libraries. -' Many wealthy and prominent society people are interested In the movement and It I expected that- contribution will be made " liberally " to -defray- the coat of establishing these branches snd furnish them with books.
